"WAGR" is an acronym for the characteristic abnormalities associated with the syndrome. The acronym stands for (W)ilms' Tumor, the most common form of kidney cancer in children; (A)niridia, partial or complete absence of the colored region of the eye(s) (iris or irides); (G)onadoblastoma, cancer of the cells that form the testes in males or the ovaries in females (gonads); and Mental (R)etardation. A combination of two or more of these conditions must be present for an individual to be diagnosed with WAGR Syndrome.

It is considered a contiguous gene syndrome, because it results from a karyotypically visible interstitial deletion of a segment of chromosome 11p13. Imaging evaluation of the WAGR syndrome is in the detection of Wilms' tumour or other genitourinary malformations. Ultrasound study may be the first-line approach, but usually CT is more helpful, especially when looking for other genitourinary malformations.

ANIRIDIA AND WAGR SYNDROME FISH ANALYSIS Open Page in New Window Print This Page Return to Search The Kleberg Cytogenetics Laboratory offers a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based assay for identifying deletions associated with isolated aniridia and WAGR syndrome. Clinical Features: Aniridia is a developmental defect of the eye that may occur sporadically or may be inherited in a family. In the majority of cases, aniridia is an isolated finding, however, it may rarely occur as part of the contiguous gene deletion syndrome, WAGR (Wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies and mental retardation). The features of WAGR are variable and affected individuals are at an increased risk to develop Wilms tumor. Reasons for Referral: Patients with isolated aniridia or clinical features suggestive of WAGR syndrome may be tested for deletions of 11p13 by FISH simultaneously with high-resolution chromosomal analysis (if not previously performed). Approximately 20-30% of patients with aniridia will have an abnormality of 11p detectable by high-resolution chromosome studies. Prenatal diagnosis may be performed if an affected family member has been studied in our laboratory and shown to have a deletion detectable by FISH. Please call regarding all prenatal samples.

WILMS TUMOR ( FISH ANALYSIS Open Page in New Window Print This Page Return to Search The Kleberg Cytogenetics Laboratory offers a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based assay for identifying deletions associated with Wilms tumor. Clinical Features: Wilms tumor is a malignancy arising from the kidneys of infants or children and may be either bilateral or unilateral. Typically, Wilms tumor presents at age 2-4 years, but may occur up to 7-8 years of age. Wilms tumor may be isolated or may occur as part of a genetic syndrome. At present, only one gene ( ) has been identified as causing Wilms tumor. The following syndromes may be due to germline mutations in : WAGR syndrome (LINK here for WAGR), Denys-Drash syndrome, Frasier syndrome and Genitourinary anomalies without renal failure. WAGR syndrome is associated with deletion of ; however, the other syndromes are primarily due to other types of mutations. Most patients with isolated Wilms tumor do not have a detectable germline mutation of Reason for Referral: Patients with isolated Wilms tumor or with Wilms tumor and associated anomalies suggestive of a syndromal cause may be tested for deletions of by FISH. Additionally, patients with aniridia and associated anomalies may be tested for deletions of

METHODS: Literature review. RESULTS: Aniridia develops as a result of a mutation in the PAX6 gene which is a part of the WAGR region in chromosome 11p13. Two thirds of all cases of aniridia present an isolated familial autosomal dominant disorder affecting only several eye structures. It is due to intragenic mutations in the PAX6 gene and therefore the patients carry a standard risk for neoplastic proliferation. In the other third of the aniridic patients the disorder is sporadic and some of them may display features of the contiguous gene syndrome of Wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies and mental retardation. About one third of the patients with sporadic aniridia develop Wilms tumor and this risk raises to 68% if an 11p13 deletion is found. Gonadal dysgenesis, a precancerous state, and gonadoblastoma may be the expression of the genitourimary anomalies, thus representing other risks for these patients.
